Apologies up front of this very soft photo, but I had to include this as it is the only shot of this particular species I have so far. i will try and update it with a better version next time I get the opportunity to see this one.

Spotted eating from the “butterfly bush” (buddleia) this single Spotted Jezebel was seen only twice throughout the time I was observing, only allowing me a few chances (which I blew) to get a decent shot. However this photo should be enough for you to see the distinct colouring of this species. The red, yellow, black combination make Jezebel’s in general easy to pick.
